General Description

CELLOBIOSE DEHYDROGENASE FROM WHITE MOULD (CDH) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of cellobiose, a disaccharide of glucose, to generate hydrogen peroxide and gluconic acid. This enzyme is a potent cellulase that plays a crucial role in the degradation of cellulose in various industrial applications, including biofuel production, textile processing, and food production. CDH is a multi-domain protein containing a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) cofactor that is essential for its catalytic activity. It has high substrate specificity and exhibits high catalytic efficiency, making it a promising candidate for biotechnological applications in the bioconversion of cellulosic biomass. Additionally, CDH has been explored for its potential in biosensing and bioelectrochemistry due to its ability to generate electrical current from the oxidation of cellobiose.
